Just days after a proposed China-made drone ban was excluded from defense legislation, the US Commerce Department shared that it is working on potential new rules to restrict or ban the foreign-made UAVs over national security concerns.
On Thursday, January 02, the US Commerce Department Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) posted a notice sharing that new foreign-made drone rules are being considered. The notice asks for public comment to assist “in determining the technologies and market participants that may be appropriate for regulation in order to address undue or unacceptable risks to US national security.”
